Wooden saxophone – plywood silhouette for crafts, 5–50 cm

The music school is holding its annual concert. The rehearsal room still needs decorations with a musical theme. Or you are looking for a gift for someone who can't live without their instrument. A wooden saxophone brings exactly this motif to the table, the wall or the wrapping paper. It is a clear silhouette that you decorate the way you want. Made for your next music decoration – painted, with things stuck on, or simply left natural.

What changes for you

• You decorate the wooden saxophone exactly as you imagine it. The plywood is untreated, so you can stick things on it, paint it, brush it with colour or oil it.
• Your decoration looks handmade. The laser-cut silhouette has the typical brown edge that traces the shape finely.
• You'll find the right size for every project. Choose from 5 cm for gift tags up to 50 cm for the wall, in 1 cm steps.
• No sawing or sanding needed. The edges are laser-cut smooth in our own production, so you can get started straight away.
• For bigger projects such as concert decorations or craft afternoons, you have plenty of shapes in stock. Order them singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this wooden saxophone makes a difference in everyday life

Shop-bought decorations often look generic. A wooden saxophone you have decorated yourself shows that someone here loves music. Use it in the practice room, as table scatter on the concert table or as a small gift for your favourite musician. Everyone recognises the motif straight away. And because you choose the surface and colour yourself, it suits your occasion rather than just any occasion.

Material & finish

The saxophone is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This creates smooth edges and the typical brown edge that outlines the shape. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. That's why it takes paint, glue or oil well. Wood is a natural material and never completely uniform. Brightness, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece. This makes every saxophone one of a kind. Every cutout is made in our own production at Bütic in Pößneck, Thuringia, with clean and careful finishing.

How to use the wooden saxophone

• Before the music school's annual concert: Scatter small saxophones on the tables as table scatter. Your guests are in the mood as soon as they sit down.
• Crafting with children or in music lessons: Each child paints their own saxophone. At the end of the afternoon, everyone takes something of their own home.
• As a gift idea: Write a name and date on a saxophone and tie it to the present. A simple parcel becomes a personal surprise.
• In a café or music shop: Decorate the shop window or counter for the concert season. It's quick to set up, in the right size and decorated in your own style.
• At home: A large saxophone, oiled or painted, becomes wall decoration in the practice room. It shows at a glance what gets played here.

Good to know about the saxophone

The saxophone was invented around 1840 by the Belgian instrument maker Adolphe Sax. It is usually made of brass. Because of its reed, it still counts as a woodwind instrument. So a wooden saxophone is closer to the original than you might think. That makes it all the better for concert decorations, music schools and music-themed gifts.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Store the cutouts in a dry place and keep them away from constant moisture, as the wood is untreated. If you paint or oil it, you protect the surface even more. That way your saxophone decoration stays looking good for a long time.
